This week is going to be all about shoes and more shoes (and maybe an interview with a yoga instructor, just to get you into that fitness mood if the clothes didn't do the trick).

I found these beauties at the Rage Factory shop on Linksfield Drive in Edenvale. It is my favourite place to do shoe shopping, yes, you do get the rejects but there are rarely something wrong with them, just be sure to fit both shoes before making a purchase.

Meltz is the place to go for sportwear this summer and even for next winter, check out my finds;

Purple tracksuit top (this was my favourite find), it is still quite pricy at a 25% discount but consider it an investement piece - From R499.90 to R399.90.

This is also a cute top, its made of a very light t-shirting, perfect for exercise and it has interesting detailing; a draw string hem and small studs around its neckline. The colour is great for summer - R199.95.

For some reason training clothes just aren't on top of my shopping list (maybe because there usually isn't any money left after that steep gym fee). I have no problem with sweating it out in one of my boyfriend's old t-shirts, but if you're anything like me, you would be familiar with the unatractive feeling you get when that preppy, skinny blond walks by in her tight colour co-ordinated outfit with all eyes fixed on her.

Times have change - no more gross t-shirts!! But this new philosophy doesn't overcome my extreme stinginess. I absolutely refuse spending R700 on a pair of black tights with a pink stripe on the left leg just because it has Nike written on it, but I do love Nike clothing so I'll go to their factory shop in the scout of some bargains.For now, check out the usuals;

Mr Price has tank tops in a wide range of colours for just R29.99, sports bra's for R39.99 and I liked this top (above pic), perfect for cycling because of its shocking colour and its elasticated hem.
